Review: NYMPHOMANIAC PART 1 Teases, Entices... Posted: 09 Jan 2014 02:00 AM PST When discussing Lars Von Trier's Nymphomaniac within team Twitch, I suddenly realized a couple of things which surprised me. One, that I've never been disappointed yet by a Lars Von Trier film. Two, how few Lars Von Trier films I've seen. These two things are very much at odds with one another. I have nothing but good memories of his work, and with every new project of his I hear about I feel excited at the original premise. So why am I not enticed more when a new film by him finally appears in the cinema? Take Antichrist: Lars Von Trier doing horror? I'm in! I hear it's about a couple grieving over the death of their child, followed by genital mutilation? I'm out! Take... |
Review: TOM YUM GOONG 2 Sees Tony Jaa Return ...But Check Out Marrese Crump! Posted: 09 Jan 2014 01:10 AM PST Tony Jaa reunites with the team that helped make his name in the martial arts world, but both he and co-star Jeeja Yanin are eclipsed by impressive up-and-comer Marrese Crump in this otherwise underwhelming action sequel.There is a moment midway through Tom Yum Goong 2 when RZA's principle villain LC begins monologuing to our captured hero, Kham (Tony Jaa). "We were all real impressed with what you did in Sydney," he declares, "but the last five years have been so disappointing". In this moment, LC speaks not only for himself, but for martial arts fans the world over. After the one-two punch of Ong-Bak and the first Tom Yum Goong, Jaa looked set to conquer the martial arts world. But his apocalyptic meltdown during production... |
Feratum Brings 8 Movies To Mexico City's Cine Tonalá Posted: 08 Jan 2014 05:30 PM PST Back in October 2013, the second edition of the Feratum Film Festival took place in Tlalpujahua, Michoacán, with a really juicy genre cinema selection. While the town of Tlalpujahua is not extremely far from Mexico City, now Feratum will have a showing just four miles away from the Zocalo (the heart of the city). Cine Tonalá is screening eight movies from Feratum's official 2013 selection, including all the winners of the feature length categories: The Cosmonaut (Best Film), Necros: Diario con la Muerte (Special Mention), Visceral: Between the Ropes of Madness (Xtreme Award), Quest for the Power Sphere (Best Fantasy & Science Fiction Film) and Birth of the Living Dead (Best Documentary). Genre fans in Mexico City will also have another chance to watch on... |
Check Out This Exclusive Clip From THE SUSPECT, In Cinemas Friday Jan 10th Posted: 08 Jan 2014 08:00 AM PST Our friends at Well Go USA have been beating a path for Asian cinema on US screens for several years now, and their latest theatrical release is Korean spy/action/thriller, The Suspect. The film opens in selected cinemas this Friday, January 10th and we've been given an exclusive clip that will give you a taste of the tension you can expect. Here's the synopsis from Well Go: Dong-chul (Gong Yoo) is the best field agent in North Korea - until he is abandoned during a mission, his wife and daughter murdered. Hunted and on the run, torn between grief and vengeance, he takes a job as a night driver for the CEO of a powerful corporation. The chairman is brutally assassinated - but gives Dong-chul a... |
Destroy All Monsters: 2013, A Year That Film Will Take To Its Grave Posted: 08 Jan 2014 07:30 AM PST 2013 wasn't a particularly good year for film, and I began to realize it when the blockbusters started limping. I think about blockbusters a lot. I do this for the most part because they're the engine that runs the American film industry; no blockbusters, no film industry. This is the part where people pipe in to remind me that film is an art, and that art isn't about money, and blah blah blah. Sorry, but that's wrong. Film is absolutely about money, because film - as an art form - is ungodly expensive. I'm not just talking about the $250M tentpole productions. Even at the very, very, very low end, film is an ungodly expensive art form in which to express oneself. You tell me,... |
Fresh Trailer For The Mo Brothers' KILLERS Posted: 08 Jan 2014 07:00 AM PST Set to have its world premiere in Sundance prior to a February 6th theatrical release in Indonesia, a new trailer has been released for The Mo Brothers' sophomore feature, Killers. Here's how Sundance describes the film:Mr. Nomura is an eerily handsome, sharply dressed, sociopathic serial killer who preys on the women of Tokyo. In Jakarta, a world-weary journalist named Bayu finds himself unexpectedly falling into vigilantism after brutally killing two sadistic robbers. When each posts videos of his violent sprees online, the pair find one another on the Internet and begin a toxic and competitive duel. While Bayu clings to the hope that he can resume a normal life, Nomura continues to spill blood without remorse. Killing, advises Nomura, is something everyone ought to consider.Timo... |
